My name is Pedro DV. I’m a Software Engineer and Software Designer. I work as a
JavaFX and Swing Freelancer and
Consultant, but more generally can be described as a Front End Freelancer and Consultant
since I also have experience in web technologies, building web apps, etc,
and have experience in
User Interface Design
and User Experience.

A new update to JMetro has just been released. Two new control styles were added: Titled Pane and Accordion. In addition there have also been tweaks to existing styles and bug fixes. Finally JMetro is now also available through Maven Central.

In this post I’ll go into more detail about the just release JMetro version 5.2.

The Progress Bar has two possible states: determinate and indeterminate and the new JMetro version has different styles for these two. In this post I’ll also go into a few details about some API design principles I abide by in JMetro.
